1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Gastric cancer (GC) is among the most frequent malignant diseases. Despite advances in treatment, the clinical outcome of patients with GC remains poor. The establishment of novel biomarkers is urgently required for early detection, treatment evaluation and prognostic assessment. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are a key topic of intensive research due to their potential applications in the field of oncology. The long ncRNA H19 has been frequently reported as overexpressed in many cancers including GC. In the present study, the diagnostic and prognostic value of circulating H19 in GC was assessed. Higher levels of circulating H19 were identified in GC patients (n=40) compared with a control group consisting of endoscopy-verified GC-free individuals (n=42; median levels relative to GAPDH, 58.4 vs. 29.9; P=0.027). Patients with smaller tumor sizes (<5 cm) exhibited higher H19 in their circulation compared with those with larger tumors (≥5 cm; P=0.04). Plasma levels of H19 declined significantly upon surgical removal of gastric tumors as documented in a subset of patients [n=20; relative median levels, 146.0 vs. 15.0 (pre-surgery); P=0.003]. However, it was identified that H19 had no prognostic role in GC by the Kaplan-Meier method. In conclusion, the present findings identify H19 as potential diagnostic marker in GC.
